15 Reasons You Should Watch Parks and Recreation
NBC

Parks and Recreation is one of the funniest shows I've ever had the pleasure to watch. Lets face it you need a new show to watch on Netflix anyways and you are always looking for new ways to procrastinate that paper that's due next week, and if you aren't a procrastinator thanksgiving break is coming up pretty soon and how else would you cure that boredom? I hope that everyone gets to watch it eventually, and here's why you should.

1. As a college student, I relate to Andy on many different levels.


2. Leslie Knope


There isn't really any way to explain Leslie Knope, all I can tell you is that you have to watch the show, and appreciate that his gif is a majority of the college population trying to be positive.

3. I named my hedgehog after Leslie


This is Leslie Knope the hedgehog and I just thought you all should know that this show is good enough to name your pets after the characters. Also look how stinking cute she is.

4. Ben is the cutest thing since tea cup pigs.


I mean come on how can you not think he is the cutest thing ever?

and he is very relatable.

5. We are all April at some point in our life.


I, personally, hate almost everyone.

6. Michelle Obama was on the show, and Michelle Obama is the best.



Michelle Obama is the best thing that ever happened to this country and I agree with everything she has to say much like Leslie Knope does.

7. Chris is the most positive person on the show but we all have times when we can't be positive anymore.


This is me on a daily basis, though, to be honest.

8. Leslie is the perfect definition of a feminist.


She is all about working and making it on her own and being equal with her male counter parts.

9. Andy is the doofus in all of us.



I think we all wish we could just act like Andy all of the time and still be able to function in Society.

10. I just can't tell you enough how relatable everyone in this show is


Same Leslie Same.

11. Ron Swanson is well Ron Swanson


Ive never been good with feelings so I could not relate to this more.

12. I mean Ron Swanson


Ron Swanson is all I have to say, you should no need any other reason to watch this show if you know anything about Ron Swanson.

13. Treat Yo Self


Sometimes you just need to treat yourself, I mean who doesn't want to buy something for themselves.

14. Can we just say Leslie Knope again


I am also super chill all the time.

15. You just have to watch it!


If you don't watch it you will be sad for the rest of your days, so just watch it. we all need a break and why not fall into the netflix pit and watch all the seasons in a week.

In honor of Mother’s Day, I have been thinking of all the things my mom does for my family and me. Although I couldn’t write nearly all of them, here are a few things that moms do for us.

They find that shirt that’s right in front of you, but just you can’t seem to find.

Thank You on wooden blocks

1. Thank you for being the one I can always count on to be honest.

A true friend will tell you if the shirt is ugly, or at least ask to borrow it and "accidentally" burn it.

2. Thank you for accepting me for who I am.

A best friend will love you regardless of the stale french fries you left on the floor of your car, or when you had lice in 8th grade and no one wanted to talk to you.

Do as I say, not as I do.

Your eyes widen in horror as you stare at your phone. Beads of sweat begin to saturate your palm as your fingers tremble in fear. The illuminated screen reads, "Missed Call: Mom."

Growing up with strict parents, you learn that a few things go unsaid. Manners are everything. Never talk back. Do as you're told without question. Most importantly, you develop a system and catch on to these quirks that strict parents have so that you can play their game and do what you want.

"Friends" maybe didn’t have everything right or realistic all the time, but they did have enough episodes to create countless reaction GIFs and enough awesomeness to create, well, the legacy they did. Something else that is timeless, a little rough, but memorable? Living away from the comforts of home. Whether you have an apartment, a dorm, your first house, or some sort of residence that is not the house you grew up in, I’m sure you can relate to most of these!
